Broken Veil #2
An Uncommon Truth of Dying
Aisling helped stop the drug war that would have destroyed all fey in Los Angeles.
But now far more than just a single city, state, or even country is at risk. The threat is global.
When the fey fled the world on the other side of the veil thousands of years ago, they did so to create a world safe from the danger they left behind.
Unfortunately, the veil is growing thinner and no longer completely blocks creatures from the other side from traveling where they want. Deadly beings left behind are coming through to this world with catastrophic results for both fey and human alike.
Fighting against beings far beyond anything seen before, and the possible replacement of people in all levels of government, Aisling and her companions find themselves on the run with no safe place to go.
There is also a small group of fey, elves in particular, who are willing to risk the destruction of this world to get the power they need. One was a thug thought dead, another is Aisling’s mother.

About the author
Marie Andreas
51 books251 followersMarie is a fantasy and science fiction reader with a serious writing addiction, and a few awards to go with it. If she wasn't writing about all the people in her head, she'd be lurking about coffee shops annoying total strangers with her stories. So really, writing is a way of saving the masses. Her fantasy series, The Lost Ancients, starts with The Glass Gargoyle. The entire six book, Lost Ancient series is complete for binge time!
There is also a completed space opera trilogy, with Warrior Wench, Victorious Dead, and Defiant Ruin. Vas and her crew of mercs launched a new series with Traitor's Folly which is also now complete.
A Curious Invasion-- a steampunk-is out and has two more books out as well. Vampires, mermaids, pharaohs, and TEA!
Essence of Chaos is the first book in a completed epic fantasy trilogy.
The Girl with the Iron Wing is a thriller/Urban Fantasy, and the first book in the Broken Veils series. The trilogy is now completed.
A trio of sisters is represented facing their biggest challenges in the Magic & Sorcery Chronicles--a clean romantasy trilogy.
A new paranormal cozy mystery fantasy series launches with Mischief in a Bottle.
More new books, series, and adventures coming in 2026!
When not saving the masses from coffee shop shenanigans, Marie likes to visit the UK and keeps hoping someone will give her a nice summer home in the Forest of Dean or northern Wales.
To find out more about the books, and future series, please visit her website at www.marieandreas.com--especially if you happen to have a small cottage to give her.

Exciting, lots of action and very entertaining book in this series!!!!!
Congratulations to Marie Andreas for this amazing series. It’s extremely hard to find such an interesting and exciting author who not only writes inttelligently but also provides top rated plots, characters and excitement in the stories. I’m really looking forward to the next book.

Wow, what a great read.
This book ends on a cliffhanger, so have the next book cued up before reading. The characters are wonderful. The plot is twisty and intense. The world building is superb. I can't wait to read the next book.

Uggg
Cliffhanger! Book Three in 2022? Ugh! Write faster!
Book Two is full of weird mysteries and resounding crises. It's quite enjoyable, except for that little cliffhanger issue.
